Ranking is nothing, drop a bomb on a factory in a Ju87, capture a couple towns and you're in. Having a good rank does not equate to ability, in certain cases the opposite is true.

i understand, im just trying to make everything relative, this is as opposed to some guy with a 5000 ranking, someone with that rank doesnt really have a clue as to what theyre doing

most in the 1-2000 range have a pretty good understanding of the game, keyword MOST

now the guy whos rank was around 100 had racked up alot of kills, so like i said, he ho's for score and doesnt care about having a good dogfight

'splain Lucy.

He said 1000 out if your finger is twitchy... you should know that the actually range that you begin your move will vary by type. If you turn at 600 in a 202 it would probably be more like 1.4k in a P51... just depends on what 'move' you are making. If I am hot I am not making the same move I make in low E situations etc. Doing the same thing in every plane wont earn you much more then bruises.

i've had alot of people with a ranking of under 1000 ho me recently, I'm assuming they just do whatever they can to get a kill (yes i usually check their rank after a ho to see if they're just a total moron)

the other night had a guy who was ranked around 100 ho me(forget the name), which i think is just dumb, now theres someone who is sololy concerned with their score, and not general gameplay

I 'HOed' you if you call a high 1/4 shot from the beginning of your move to my nose a HO. Had you tried to HO me it would not have worked for you. The tell tale sign of your tail falling off should have given that away.  :D

Now it makes sense ... thanks.

i dont recall that... but I know for a fact this guy wasnt you, this guy made a direct move to get on my 12 o'clock. I guess i should have finished the story... he does that, then i break right real hard, he sets himself up for ANOTHER ho, I break again, and finally the 109k4 gets the nice turn advantage over his pony  and i get on his 6 and 30mm him to kingdom come. I then proceed to call him a hotard, feeling proud of myself for surviving his 2 ho attempts then takin him down.

I usually fly the 109k4 so a ho basically always puts me out of commission.

now i will say about a month ago i had run into two f4us and had a similar story, where we both happened to merge setting up perfect hos and both held our fire, so i saluted and talked to those guys. It seems like only once in a blue moon will you someone not take that shot.

My advice if you see a ho, turn, its as simple as that, i've gotten proficient at it, and it works well. I don't count on them not being a ho tard anymore, its become too much of a pandemic these days.

In a fight 9 times out of 10 the guy is going to try for the HO.

Guess what, 9 times out of 10 the guy is a clueless noob who couldn't kill time with a sledgehammer and a stopwatch.

Which one are you?
